      “COME ON, let's go there!” Erizze mumbled habang naglilikot sa likod ko. Ang kulit naman nito.

I sighed. Ganito pala siya malasing.

“Aray! Huwag kang malikot,” I groaned dahil nasasabunutan niya na ako. Buti na lang talaga hindi ako masyadong uminom.

She wanted to be shown around, so I went outside to do that. After a few minutes of walking, I've now realized she's been silent behind kaya nagtaka ako.

“Are you okay there?”

“Hmm,” She moaned.

Her head rested on my shoulder, allowing me to feel her breath on my neck since she was facing right at my neck. After taking a deep breath, I resumed walking.

The sensation of her sniffing my neck made me gasp. “H-hoy! What are you doing?”

“I love your scent, darling.” She muttered at lalong dumikit sa leeg ko.

My eyes widened. “H-hey!”

“You smell so good, I can't help it,”
She mumbled.

The moment she said that, I blushed. T*ng*na naman. Luke, she's wasted, okay? Lasing na 'yan.

I forced myself to laugh. “Stop that, I swear, uuwi na talaga kita,”

“Okay, I'll stop na po,” I shook my head and smiled a little. Madali lang naman palang kausap. She abruptly embraced my neck as I was ready to move forward one more step. “I just want to be with you for a little while,”

Anak nang—ayan na naman ang puso ko. Putcha, ano ba ginagawa niya sakin? Her effects in me are utterly wrong. I can't hold onto my feelings. This is not right at all.

“So please, don't bring me home yet,” she whispered through my ears.

I swallowed hard, licked my lips as I closed my eyes and left out a deep sigh. “If that's what you want, then, okay,”

I heard her smile. “Thank you,”

She planted a kiss on my right cheek that made my eyes widened. I feel like I became even more red because of what she did. D*mn it. Wala 'to, lasing na talaga kaya nagagawa niya mga ito.  I soothed myself by shaking my head. I kept walking till we got to the ocean.

“Wow!” She exclaimed with a gasp. Then, she leapt off my back and dashed into the ocean.

“Erizze! Careful!” I yelled dahil naka-heels pa siya.

“I know!” She replied. She was beaming, and I couldn't help but giggle. Para siyang bata. 

I put my hand into my pocket and went with him. She removed his heels bago siya umapak sa tubig.

She hugged herself and chuckled. “Grr, it's cold,”

I smiled and took off my jacket and put it on her back. She was stunned for a moment and gave me a surprised expression.

“Wear it,” I said.

With a smile, she put on my jacket. She giggled a moment later. “You're such a gentleman,”

“Yes, I am. I have the utmost respect for all individuals and particularly for women. They deserve to be treated like gems,” I murmured as I gazed at the moon.
